“In order to experience true joy, it also means that we have to experience this variety of emotions.” This episode is a little different and was hosted with a studio audience in New York, NY at Brace Life Studio. Conversing with Dr. Jennifer Mullan, of Decolonizing Therapy at Triggered AF’s first live event, The Evolve Experience, was life-altering. Dr. Jennifer helped us to begin to unpack the different ways to identify and release our rage. It is essential to acknowledge what is and be intentional about finding places and spaces where you can be revitalized.
Sometimes rage gets a bad rap. There are different layers of rage and acknowledging ways to rejuvenate yourself so that these past experiences are not controlling us is vital. Find ways to include compassion and grace within your life's experiences that may trigger rage. Learning how to release your rage in healthy ways helps you to remain in control.
KEY POINTS:
Events like colonization and historical trauma have an impact on everything and everyone surrounding us. Most traumatic events are associated with these events. The lack of love and affection we all deserve is missing from our everyday lives. If a situation begins controlling you, remove yourself before it escalates.
When trauma happens it didn’t just verbally happen, your body had a response and it keeps the score. And if it’s keeping score it needs a way to release some of that pain in order for it to start to heal.
Anything related to trauma is like a mirror being held. And it requires people to self-reflect and not everyone is ready to look at things that are buried or are painful so it’s important to meet people where they are.
Anxiety, panic attacks, depression, and illness manifests when we keep swallowing our emotions versus having a conversation or admitting we need help.
QUOTABLES:
“Find ways to release rage in a healthy manner.”
“We do better together than separated”
“The stigma of people thinking we’re weak many times keeps us from seeking or asking for help.”
“Don’t only just stuck in what feels good or bypassing [your emotions] and jumping to what feels good.”

Two beautiful and uber intelligent young women discussing various topics that are extremely relevant for today? I’m in!!! I was not disappointed and I’m sure you won’t be either.
I think 🤔 we need to listen to what these women have to say. I was very impressed with the episodes and hope to hear many more.
These ladies talk about real, relatable content. Specifically the Villainous Victims episode. And it’s true…we are all villains in someone else’s story, which can be tough to admit. But necessary to understand.
This show is such a great listen for young and mature women to let you know you 1) no you’re not crazy 2) you’re no alone 3) your feelings matter. Thank you Alechia & Dani for your real and raw conversations. This should be a TV show!
